I'm studying in aus at this moment. Laptop will still be hot when I'm trying to play games on MBP. How good it is if MBP supports GTA V.
Wow, nice bro MacBook Pro Retina User Thread, All you can feedback here and report in.

If the Mac was that easily overheated and die due to heat, it surely wasn't worth of its price tag after all. Something so expensive yet easily break down.
Your fan could easily run at max and processing at high temperature if there's memory leak issue with browser especially when it come to video streaming. Mine always running at max when I'm doing video encoding and that'll be hours of processing. |

Hi guys, thanks for all the suggestions, I just got my rMbp 13' two days ago and yeah i agree, naked all the way!! The body surface feels great to the touch like that.
Maybe I worried too much at first xD just gonna get a keyboard cover and use it when needed and a sleeve too. Btw, I've installed a few items like steam, dr. cleaner, VLC, and google drive but my apps already take up about 35gb of the storage.. Also, while I was organising my iTunes yesterday with about 1000 songs the finder got frozen a few times with the wheel keeps spinning for like 10-15 secs before it returned to normal.. is both situation normal for a brand new macbook? Thank you in advance and sorry for being a noob, first time macbook user here |

Playing games will kill ur notebook faster than anything. I have my desktop for that and it is an ATX casing so airflow isn't a problem. As long as u do just work, both laptop and desktop can last a lifetime. Gamers don't care things that last because it will be time to upgrade before it dies off lol

Relief to hear that from you. I'm very paranoid with heating in lappy, so getting over scared if my macbook get overheat.

QUOTE(akimi @ Apr 16 2015, 03:09 PM) yeap i checked that box. Since I have the 'touch to click' unchecked, the only way for me to make a click is by applying slight pressure, the touchpad will recognise it and return a light haptic experience immediately which is much like a real clicking.i tried it on safari. the second click that makes the dictionary pop ups is the vibration? And to make the force touch, I'll need to press bit harder, feedback are a light haptic followed by a stronger one, you can definitely tell the difference. Summary: The whole experience is excellent for me with the natural clicking sensation by the new touchpad. |

Summary: The whole experience is excellent for me with the natural clicking sensation by the new touchpad. whenever i use the force touch it's like abit too harsh for the trackpad, although i set it to light dy. maybe i'm still not used to the new trackpad |
